“'Merica: Free Without the Dumb”

REFRAIN
I’d, like to get by and forget my
Life, just for a while
I’d, like to get high, and forget my
Life, just for a while
just for a while
Just for a while…
Everybody take a breath (exhale) and let it go
I’ma tell you everything you need to know
It could start some-thing beautiful
Where you get your inspiration from, huh?
Same place I got my information, son
Check you’re source before you start believin’ um
I dreamt America was Free w/o the Dumb!
Make this country great, step outside yourself
Learn to educate, find how you can help
To a better day, cause I feel how you felt
You can do it too, you might surprise yourself!
And I’m back again, like momma backs it in
It ain’t no accident, that this is happenin’
Babies don’t get made, from being abstinent
But if you can’t be smart, then quit your practicin’
Relax Nick (sighs)- take some time (alright)
Find yourself – and clear your mind
You seem to think the whole worlds crazy (Well it is!)
But have you looked at yourself lately!? (No…!)
I’d better reflect
